Water
May 31, 2009
Dripping slowly,
never stopping.
Crystal drips,
always dropping.
Down,
Down,
and deeper still,
water growing with a will.
Pools of silver,
against the land.
Dirsturbed with ripples,
by my hand.
Shimmer shiver,
cold as ice,
splashing,
not just once,
but twice.
Twisting,
Turning,
like a snake.
Not effected when we make,
efforts to stop it,
we can try.
Rustled by the soft wind's sigh.
Thicker,
Wider,
faster still.
Past perhaps,
an old wheat mill.
Blue lape lupaz,
touched with green.
Always crisp,
always clean.
From brook,
to stream,
to river running.
Ever quick and ever cunning.
Finally done,
and out to sea.
I love the water,
it's so like me.
